"Must pay child support even though baby was conceived through sexual abuse" Umm...Do people think they have the right to sexually assault someone, get them pregnant and not pay child support? What the hell is this world coming to?! An end. :|
The arguments are generally poor, and in the right forums would be destroyed in about 5 minutes. But this isn't that forum.
"In the right forum they'd be destroyed" Ok bro, make this the right forum. How is the argument weak? The wage gap is a myth.
Did you not read? The "77 cents for every dollar a man earns" claim is true, but that is because it is total earnings for all females, which doesn't include differences in majors, higher paying careers etc. 9 of the top 10 highest paying majors are dominantly male, while 9 out of 10 of the lowest paying majors are dominantly women.
Even within the same field, such as the medical field, women are more likely to gravitate to the lower stress areas of the major, such as nurses, while a higher percentage of makes take high stress, high pay positions like surgeons.
That's the claim of that website. But what's your evidence? Meta analysis of studies on pay for female CEOs for example shows that they are paid c. 20% less than their male counterparts.
The wage gap stats provided are courtesy of the American Association of University Women. The gender ratio of majors is from Payscale and reported by the Atlantic.
No, that is the difference in average wages for all men and women. It doesn't account for the different jobs they work and their pay. When weighted the gap becomes 6 cents.
